Webstorm push rejected

Check the EventLog and Console tab of the VersionControl tool window to see more details on why it is rejected.

Assuming that terminal equals to console there is not much more information in either window. Please check the screenshot below:

> Assuming that terminal equals to console

No, in the Version control tool window there is a separate tab called Console, that shows git commands and outputs.

You could also check the logs https://intellij-support.jetbrains.com/hc/en-us/articles/207241085

Nope. Cant find it. Please see the screenshot below:

Misha,

Console tab will appear after commit/push action.

Found it finally! Here is what it gives me:

19:44:48.231: [VCS Template] git -c core.quotepath=false -c log.showSignature=false push --progress --porcelain Webstorm-Project-Template refs/heads/master:master --set-upstream --follow-tags

Done

Mihail,

Does the hint help?

When I try to do git pull, it does not work, which I think was the whole point of the hint. Also please this Toolbox issue I am having: https://intellij-support.jetbrains.com/hc/en-us/community/posts/360000573490-JetBrains-Toolbox-JavaScript-Error-Type-Error-Cannot-read-property-update-scroll-of-null

> When I try to do git pull, it does not work

Please clarify. What exact error do you get?

I get this error:

14:36:22.064: [VCS Template] git -c core.quotepath=false -c log.showSignature=false pull --progress --no-stat -v --progress Webstorm-Project-Template master

fatal: refusing to merge unrelated histories

You are trying to pull from a repository that is not related to your local one. See https://stackoverflow.com/questions/37937984/git-refusing-to-merge-unrelated-histories-on-rebase

I was merging the same thing. So it cannot be unrelated.

It is git itself telling you histories are unrelated, not IDE. You will get exactly the same if you execute the git -c core.quotepath=false -c log.showSignature=false pull --progress --no-stat -v --progress Webstorm-Project-Template master command manually.

The issue is that all commits in the remote repository have different hashes from your local repo - so there are no common commits between the two and git considers then as unrelated. It could be a result of rebasing actually.

feature request: can the "bubble" that displays currently "Push Rejected, Push <branch> to origin/<branch> was rejected by..." either display the error message or at least the "link" to open Version Control > Console ?
